FSA gossamer pro crankset on eBay
I wiped out on my gravel bike, the skin will grow back, but I bent my crank. Right or wrong I'm going to replace with the same crankset. Looking online and the gossamer pro 386 evo retails for $168ish on most retail websites. on eBay it appears the exact same cranks set (new) sells for $58ish with free shipping. am I missing something? It states that it is an OE part and the photos appear the same as the retail site. please advise.
bike parts are sooooo convoluted.

Basically, Gossamer cranks are OEM junk. Pretty much everyone who's been riding awhile has one in their parts bin that they cannot get rid of because no one wants a used or new-pull off Gossamer - because they already have one sitting in their parts bin.
But if cost is an issue, then yes, $58 is about right for a new one. Otherwise, you may want to consider other options. I do not remember off the top of my head which cranksets are 386 BB compatable.

Save yourself money and go with the $58 option; same exact crankset as the one listed by CC. I'm sure the one listed for less on eBay is a "Take-off" part but nothing wrong with that unless your the type that wants OE packaging.
